PENTECOST SUNDAY – YEAR C

PENTECOST SUNDAY – YEAR C

INTRODUCTION:

Today we celebrate the great feast of Pentecost. It is the feast of God’s spirit. The power of the evil spirit comes to an end. We know the spirit of envy can poison our hearts. We know the evil spirits of anger and greed. The spirit of hatred destroys our happiness. Today, we praise the deeds of God. He breathes over us with the spirit of power. His breath is like a storm and fire. Today the evil spirits become afraid, their power is broken. Let us allow God to breathe over us.

GOSPEL – JOHN 14: 15 -16, 23 – 26

Jesus said to his disciples: “If you love me, you will keep my commandments. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate to be with you always. “Whoever loves me will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our dwelling with him. Those who do not love me do not keep my words, yet the word you hear is not mine but that of the Father who sent me. “I have told you this while I am with you. The Advocate, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you.”.
